Crews showed off the fire trucks as well as highlighting fall and winter fire safety tips. The festivities included German cuisine as well as various games and activities.

We were honored to be presented challenge coins from the leadership of the ODA. Visitors from the superior agency in Germany were present as well.

All three shifts look forward to continuing this special shared partnership with our neighbors in Reston.
